    Best album I have ever listened to. It defines my life. There is something for everyone and it will not disappoint at all. Lana is queen for dark yet airy lyrics and amazing instruments.

    Ultraviolence is full of rock, sadness and darkness and this is what makes it such a deep and meaningful album. Lana's soul was put into this album and you can just tell how she was feeling when writing this. Beautiful and methodical, such a masterpiece.

    ultraviolence, como eu posso começar a descrever o ultraviolence? esse album deveria ser sinônimo de um album perfeito, pra quando alguem lançar um álbum topperson a pessoa falar ¨meu deus esse album é tão ultraviolence¨. essa obra de arte simplesmente inventou a guitarra, tem faixas perfeitas LANA O MUNDO TE ACLAMA. 1111111 money power glory musica do milenio quem concorda respira.

    The guitars on Ultraviolence fit so well. Cruel World is an amazing opening track. Lana's voice is real and emotional. Though the best track without a doubt would be Shades of Cool - one of the best tracks I have probably heard in my life. The instrumental, the vocals, omg.

    This is still Lana's magnum opus to me, 3 albums later. Not only is recording live rare nowadays, but Lana has just this vibe and persona in this album that makes you feel like you're actually the fictional woman whose eyes we see through.

    This album is incredible and timeless. Unlike everything that Lana Del Rey has done, she explores her vocals very well throughout the album, and her instrumental pieces are very well produced, highlighting sounds of guitars and drums. This is THE TRUE MILLENNIUM ALBUM!

    Her best album in my opinion. Really shows off her talent with her amazing vocals after hearing born to die I didn’t think any Lana project could beat it till I heard this masterpiece. Even after hearing honeymoon and lust for life, nothing can live up to this masterpiece of an album ultraviolence. Thank you Lana

    My favorite album by Lana Del Rey. It is a long shot from its predecessor, Born to Die. Ultraviolence is so much different than Born to Die's production and theme as this album is much more graphic, melodramatic, and haunting. Alongside Del Rey's vocal acrobatics and prowess, the vibe of this album is incomparable and unfathomable by words. Moreover, her lyricism in this album is myMy favorite album by Lana Del Rey.

Alongside Del Rey's vocal acrobatics and prowess, the vibe of this album is incomparable and unfathomable by words. Moreover, her lyricism in this album is my favorite as she successfully painted a picture of hedonistic acts and taboos of violence, sex and drugs while being a masterpiece. This is her Magnum Opus.

    O meu preferido de todos os álbuns dela, mas o Norman Funcking Rockwell! é de fato o melhor da sua carreira até agora.

    Este album es lo maximo. Tiene por lo menos tres o cuatro canciones que son una joya. Hay que ser muy hijo de puta para calificar el album con 30 o 40.

  1. A shake up in the lyric department would be nice to see next time around, but on this outing Lana Del Rey is able to sell it with striking vocal performances and breathtaking compositions.

    While her David Lynch qualities remain, there's also something of the masochistic Lars Von Trier heroine in the resigned drowse of these songs. [Sep 2014, p.92]

    Underwhelming ending aside, it’s fair to say that Del Rey (and her collaborators) have more than risen to the challenge of keeping her a part of the pop culture conversation, for all the right reasons.
